What do you need to know from an organiser in order to provide a comprehensive quote?

In order to provide the best quote possible, details of your event along with the date it is to take place are very helpful. We will also need information regarding the estimated number of people you are looking to cater for as well as a location.
The more information you provide, the better. This way we can provide a full breakdown of what we offer as well as a fully inclusive comprehensive quotation.

What advice would you give to a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

If you are looking to hire a mobile caterer then check what kind of option you are looking for. Are you looking for something unique, relaxed and informal - or something more formal and comprehensive? Always check their website - have they got lots of images of jobs they have carried out? This is an excellent way of gauging the popularity of a caterer. Ask for testimonials and reviews, and also ask whether they have the contact details of those reviewers. If they're genuine and authentic - they will be able to provide them.

Please tell us a little bit about how and why you started the business.

Juicy Jackets was formed to create a unique catering option primarily for the corporate sector. We have been operating since 2009 and our passion has always been about proving freshly cooked quality food. Equally important is how we look and the service we offer. A strong emphasis is put on our appearance and this has branched out into our wedding bookings and private parties. This approach and continual insistence on high standards has ensured that we maintain our reputation as one of the best concept caterers around.

Please tell us about a booking you've had through Add to Event, how did it go? Would you recommend us to others?

We have secured a number of bookings through Add to Event with our mobile catering unit. Including a corporate event three years back to feed a whole factory on their annual company day (500+ people). The company has used us every year since then.
We also secured a booking for a private party in Bath with our Ultimate Catering Combo package. Along with this, we took a booking through Add to Event to cater at a 60th birthday party in Leicestershire with our combo package.
